Embracing Puerto Rico's Beauty: A Perfect Blend of Work and Island Retreat with OcyonBio

🎶 **Puerto Rican Culture Through Music: The Story of "Che Che Colé"** 🎶 "Che Che Colé" is more than just a children's song—it's a powerful representation of Puerto Rico's rich, diverse heritage. Originally stemming from traditional Ghanaian folk songs of the Ga ethnic group, this Afro-Latin anthem embodies the deep African influence that continues to shape Puerto Rican music and culture. The most famous version, recorded by the iconic Willie Colón in 1969, features the legendary Héctor Lavoe and blends African rhythms with Afro-Caribbean sounds, creating an infectious salsa tune. 🇵🇷 In Puerto Rican culture, "Che Che Colé" stands as a celebration of our Afro-Puerto Rican roots, drawing from the vibrant traditions of bomba and plena. These rhythms are not just music—they're expressions of **community, resilience, and joy**. As we honor *Latino Heritage Month*, let's reflect on how songs like "Che Che Colé" showcase the fusion of African, Taino, and Spanish influences that make Puerto Rican culture so unique, strong, and enduring. Our music tells our story—one of **unity, pride, and the celebration of identity**. 🌍🎵 #LatinxHeritageMonth #OrgulloBoricua #AfroLatino #CulturalFusion #PuertoRicanPride #Salsa #CommunityThroughMusic #BombaYPlena

Kicking off the week with a positive note from Liza Colón-Zayas! 🇵🇷✨🙌🏽

On our watch, no sequin gets left behind. ✨ Astrologer and television personality Walter Mercado kept viewers glued to their screens with his dramatic horoscope readings and daily positive affirmations for over 50 years. An icon of Spanish-language television, Mercado was unapologetically himself, bending norms around gender with his signature style. And that style often featured sparkles. Mercado often accessorized his embroidered suits with rings, bejeweled brooches, boots, and capes. Inspired by the flag of his beloved Puerto Rico, Mercado wore this cape to Puerto Rican Day parades. See our National Museum of the American Latino staff carefully install Mercado’s cape, in the collection of our Smithsonian National Museum of American History in "¡Presente! A Latino History of the United States." As part of the Smithsonian Campaign for Our Shared Future, we’re securing funds to preserve objects, like Mercado’s cape, that reveal important and inclusive histories. Your support helps us preserve every sparkle for future generations. Learn more about how you can get involved. https://lnkd.in/eukWq9cd #SmithsonianHHM #AmericanLatinoMuseum
